From Father to Son: Steering EISENBERG Paris Into the Future of Luxury Beauty

Long before EISENBERG Paris became synonymous with science-backed skincare and French luxury, it was the story of a young boy in Bucharest whose life was shaped by displacement, resilience and an unwavering belief in beauty. From working odd jobs at 13 to building a fashion atelier in Florence by his early twenties, José Eisenberg’s journey spanned industries and continents — from couture to computing — each chapter adding a layer of expertise that would eventually form the DNA of his namesake brand.

José Eisenberg’s conviction culminated in the patented Trio-Molecular® Formula after 15 years of development. In 2025, his son Edmond carries this legacy forward, overseeing international strategy and expanding the brand’s reach while remaining true to its founding principles of innovation. Today EISENBERG Paris has evolved into a family-owned luxury beauty house built on an intergenerational pursuit of science, as Edmond Eisenberg continues to shape the brand without compromising its core values.

LUXUO sits down with Edmond Eisenberg to discuss the brand’s scientific ethos, its approach to emerging markets, the future of its product portfolio and how EISENBERG continues to bridge science, art and emotion in beauty’s ever-changing landscape.

EISENBERG’s story dates back to 1985 and the vision of founder José Eisenberg. Can you share more about how the brand began and evolved?

The story of EISENBERG begins in 1985 from my father’s lifelong ambition to unite his passions, science, art and beauty into a singular vision. 

Drawing on his rich and eclectic career — from pioneering the democratisation of fashion in Italy in the 60’s and 70’s to exploring the frontiers of technology and artificial intelligence in the United States in 1972 — he sought to create a brand that reflected his identity and values: timeless, authentic beauty elevated by scientific innovation, excellence, creativity and perfection. 

After 15 years of relentless research into the nature and very thorough testing, he finally launched EISENBERG Paris — a unique, family-named brand — which spans skin-care, perfumes and make-up, in 2000.

For him, the greatest fulfilment was knowing that his passion would become a family legacy, carried out. Today I have the honour of perpetuating it forward, with the same drive for excellence and timeless modernity that defines the spirit of EISENBERG.

After 15 years of intensive research and testing, the Trio-Molecular® Formula was born to regenerate, energise and oxygenate the skin. Can you tell us more about that process?

My father always asked himself: why create skincare products if they don’t deliver efficacy, visible, long-lasting and fast-acting results, and so always with safe and trustworthy formulae? This inspired over 15 years of scientific research and testing, leading to our worldwide patented Trio-Molecular® Formula. By combining three natural molecules that regenerate, energise and oxygenate the skin, it restores the skin’s youthful functions and amplifies the power of active ingredients. Today, it remains at the heart of every EISENBERG skincare creation, a testament to our scientific expertise and our promise of visibly radiant, healthy skin.

As a brand known for pushing biocosmetic research and developing cosmeceuticals with both cosmetic and therapeutic benefits, how deeply does this philosophy shape EISENBERG’s DNA?

At EISENBERG, we believe that science and nature coexist in perfect harmony. Our biocosmetic approach is rooted in this conviction, using the best natural resources — enhanced by advanced scientific research — to achieve visible, transformative results. Every formula is the result of a meticulous process of selection, testing and refinement alongside ensuring safety, efficacy and pleasure of use.

From the luxurious textures to the elegant packaging, every detail is designed to elevate the senses and speak to the emotions of our dear customers, who ultimately are our constant inspiration. For us, beauty is never superficial; it is a complete, sensorial experience that speaks to both absolute efficacy, performance and emotion.

Given EISENBERG’s breadth across skincare, fragrances and makeup, how would you describe the brand’s defining signature?

The essence of EISENBERG lies in an unwavering pursuit of excellence and integrity. Every creation — from skincare to fragrance to make-up — is conceived as a promise, one that bears our family name. This signature is a commitment to our customers: a guarantee of safety, efficacy and respect.

We develop each product with the utmost care, meticulous creativity and authenticity, never to follow trends but to define our own. We listen to customers, anticipate their needs and we never launch any product until it meets our most demanding standards of performance, artistry and sensorial pleasure. Namely, what we believe is perfect. 

EISENBERG’s skincare delivers visible, scientifically proven results; our perfumes tell emotional, distinctive stories. EISENBERG’s make-up enhances natural beauty with precision and sophistication. Together, they reflect who we are: a brand driven by passion, creativity and timeless modernity.

What ingredients does EISENBERG prioritise and are there any ingredients banned?

Each ingredient in an EISENBERG formula is selected for its proven efficacy, purity and synergy with others. We work exclusively with clinically tested, biotechnological and natural actives that deliver transformative, visible results while respecting the skin’s integrity. Some of our key ingredients include Raspberry Leaf Stem Cells, encapsulated vitamins, Green Tea Extract, Peptides, Hyaluronic Acid, Vegetal Ceramides and Caffeine.

Naturally, not only do we not use any banned ingredients but we avoid any possible controversial ingredients. We refuse to include any ingredient that does not contribute to performance or skin health; silicones, mineral oils, phthalates and parabens are notably absent from our skincare formulas. 

Even our perfumes reflect this philosophy as they are formulated with beetroot-derived alcohol, a natural, non-irritating base that respects both skin and environment ensuring pleasure never comes at the expense of well-being. Our research teams continuously refine and update our formulations to remain at the forefront of innovation and regulatory excellence, ensuring the highest standards for our clients worldwide.

Can you share which ingredients EISENBERG focuses on and whether there are any that are off-limits for the brand?

Innovation is at the heart of everything we do at EISENBERG. We are currently preparing the launch of a new instalment of our make-up collection for 2026, a line that embodies both expertise and modern artistry. I am also working on my first own perfume collection for both women and men, which marks a deeply creative milestone for me and for the brand, and we are presently launching a new generation of cleansers to meet our customers’ ever-growing concerns regarding pollution and skin health.

Beyond product innovation, we continue to make our best-sellers evolve, enhancing textures, formulas and sensoriality for even further results and increased pleasure. Consumers today seek authenticity, transparency and efficacy, values that have always been and will always remain the foundation of EISENBERG.

What is your strategy for the Asian market and are there formulations created with Asian skin in mind?

Our products are formulated to suit all skin types and tones, age groups and genders, reflecting our belief in inclusive and universal beauty. However, we do recognise and value the specific needs and beauty aspirations of our Asian clients. Our Pure White Collection, for instance, offers anti-age, brightening and tone-evening solutions for a luminous, flawless complexion that resonates with some of these preferences.

Complementing this, our Face Refining Serum has become a favourite in the region for its targeted action on firmness and contouring, helping to visibly reduce the appearance of a double chin — a result confirmed in a clinical study by 100 percent of the panelists after just 56 days. Similarly, our Firming Remodeling Mask (with 2 « l » ) — applied to the face and eye contour — instantly lifts, firms and plumps the skin, leaving a radiant, smooth and hydrated complexion after just five minutes. 

These products — rooted in our scientific expertise — offer Asian clients the combination of immediate visible effects and long-term transformative benefits that they expect, harmonising perfectly with their skincare aspirations.

What is your existing footprint in Asia through distributors and partners and do you anticipate widening that presence?

EISENBERG is proudly distributed in China and we have recently launched our Fragrance Collections in South Korea — a quite audacious move. Our products are also available worldwide through our official website — as well as the most Selective Perfumeries — ensuring that our clients can access our creations wherever they are.

Asia is a particularly important market for us, firstly because there are such diverse and foundational cultures for thousands of years, having such an impact on today’s world as we know it. Asia is moreover home to discerning beauty enthusiasts who appreciate both our signature skincare innovations and our fragrance and make-up best-sellers. We are always exploring new partnerships and collaborations to strengthen our presence across the region, bringing EISENBERG closer to clients who value excellence, efficacy and luxury. For us, expansion is not just about geography but about connection, trust and sharing our passion for beauty with those who truly understand and appreciate it.

What can you share about EISENBERG Paris’ long-term trajectory? Are you considering bringing in investors, exploring an IPO or reinforcing your identity as a family-run brand?

We pride ourselves that EISENBERG Paris is one of the only family-owned selective brands, built on heritage, trust and driven by innovation. For us, growth is not only about scale, but about authentic meaning, evolving with integrity and staying true to the values that define who we are. 

We are looking for partners who share the same values as we do — mainly excellence, creativity and expertise — aiming at strengthening our global presence. 

Naturally, we wish to expand our product ranges and continue to craft exceptional, timeless creations that embody both art and science. Because ultimately we are inspired by our customers and we create for them. 

To wrap up, can you share more about the family’s long-standing connection to the arts?

Art and beauty are inseparable in the EISENBERG universe, they are our language, our inspiration and our legacy. My father has always believed that art gives meaning to beauty, shaping our sense of harmony and emotion. Every EISENBERG creation carries this artistic spirit, from the sculptural packaging to the compositions within. In all humility, I have always been passionate for music playing violin, piano, guitar and occasionally composing. 

For me, art is timeless, universal and profoundly human. It challenges conventions, inspires creativity and connects us to our senses. 

The story of EISENBERG is and always will be the story of art meeting science and of beauty expressed as an act of emotion and creation.
